Okay, I have more then one word...
Like most music bio- films - The Eastwood Bird film centered on Parker's romantic relationship.
In this case, his relationship with Chan Richardson(after two failed marriages). Despite the fact they had two kids, the film made the relationship the centerpiece of his life which is contrary to all the other bio's I've read.
If I remember correctly, Eastwood took the liberty of re-recording all the rhythm tracks... which sounded suspiciously phoned in from the wrong decade.
If you want to find out about Parker, read "Bird Lives" or the Miles Davis autobiography. You'll realize how "whitewashed" Clint's film really was.
Another thing, I like Whitaker but I didn't think his portrayal of Parker was much of a departure from his usual schtick.
